Swedish Residents Get “Flaming Revenge” After Muslim “Immigrants” Invade Their Town

The migrant crisis in Europe has caused tensions to run high, but perhaps nowhere are those tensions higher than in Sweden.

The Scandinavian country, long thought to be peace-loving and liberal, has seen residents torch planned refugee shelters to head off the problems plaguing cities throughout Europe.

According to RT, the latest incident was in the Swedish city of Eskilstuna. Lying 70 miles west of Sweden’s capital of Stockholm, Eskilstuna is home to about 60,000 people.

On Friday, a children’s summer camp in the city went up in flames. Authorities were called to the site about 11 p.m., but by the time firefighters arrived, there was little they could do. Most of the structures had gone up in flames.

The camp was scheduled to become a refugee center for approximately 60 migrants from the Middle East. Thankfully, nobody was inside of the buildings at the time of the blaze. Arson was suspected.

At almost the same time, a refugee center in Munkedal was set on fire, as well. However, the building had already been the site of an attempted arson just a week ago, so the building was cordoned off. That fire was put out quickly.

As the repeat nature of the arson in Munkedal should attest, these are not isolated incidents. At least seven similar suspicious fires have been reported in recent weeks.

An old school building in a suburb of Gothenburg, a former retirement home in Oderljunga and three other buildings in Ljungby, Väsby and Arlöv were all set ablaze by arsonists.

In all, 20 incidents involving refugee housing have been reported in 2015.

Such tensions are unsurprising given how hard the migrant crisis has hit Sweden. The country of 9.8 million has taken in over 100,000 immigrants — the most per capita in Europe and the most in a single year in Sweden’s history.

In addition to that, 90,000 more were expected to arrive before year’s end.

“Sweden cannot take such a disproportionately large burden,” Prime Minister Stefan Lofven told reporters recently. The country, traditionally welcoming to migrants, has toughened asylum laws and asked the EU to redistribute some of the refugees elsewhere.

But with the refugee presence causing concern in other countries about their willingness to follow European laws without trying to substitute Shariah law, they’re not being welcomed elsewhere either. Even in the refugee camps, violence is breaking out among fundamentalist Muslims if any fellow refugee strays from the path.

Incidents like the ones in Sweden only go to show the tragic tensions that the situation has created. While the arsonists share the majority of the blame for their reprehensibl acts, there’s no doubt that the tensions have been stoked by the EU, which refuses to do anything lest they look politically incorrect.

And sadly, it looks like the situation could get worse before it gets better.
